@Mlockhartjr Any other tips to help would be awesome!
Tip #1 : Quit waiting. Do now.
Tip #2 : Quit dreading. You are on the path to freedom. It is liberating and exciting.
Tip #3 : Quit trying. You either are or aren't quit. Don't put the crap in your mouth and you are quit. There is no trying.
Tip #4 : No one needs nicotine
Tip #5 : No one needs nicotine to quit nicotine. Roughly 99.99% of the people who report having used the patch, nic gum, or lozenges, describe the same withdrawal symptoms upon quitting. We are addicted to nicotine, not ground-up dead leaves. I "tried" multiple NRT products on the market and found that my brain doesn't start to re-wire itself until after the nicotine is out of system.
Tip #6 : Don't rely on your own self. An addict mind manufactures bullshit. We try to sweep out bullshit as much as possible.
Tip #7 : Post roll call. Do this immediately before or after you introduce yourself. Make sure it gets done. You failed there.
Tip #8 : Post roll call every day. Be accountable.
Tip #9 : Post roll call first thing upon waking up every day. Promise to take nicotine off the table as an option. Keep your word.
Tip #10 : Read up here so you know how this place works.
Tip #11 : Headaches, sleeplessness, and extremely irritability are common withdrawal symptoms. You won't die from them.
Tip #12 : Quit asking for help and then ignoring the advice. Your way never worked in the past, quit relying on your way to quit. Do it the KTC way and you will be successful.
Let's see some other newcomer put these tips to action immediately. You'll thank me later.
